SafetyNet Credit Loans

Who and what are SafetyNet Credit?

SafetyNet Credit is a trading name of Indigo Michael Ltd. They provide an alternative to short-term loans, by securely linking to your bank account, monitoring it, and topping up when you are low in funds or about to go into an unauthorised overdraft.

Offering a permanent line of revolving credit, with no minimum or maximum repayment terms, their system enables either manual or automatic tops ups and can help you to avoid costly bank charges.

When you apply with CashLady, your application will be sent to SafetyNet Credit as one of the lenders in our lender panel. Applying through CashLady could increase the likelyhood of finding you a loan.

What is the duration of a SafetyNet Credit loan?

There is no set repayment date for the money that you borrow from SafetyNet Credit, although there is a required monthly minimum payment, like other credit facilities, such as credit cards.

How much credit can you apply for?

SafetyNet credit offers a credit limit of up to £500 for all approved customers, which is available whenever you need it.

If you select, ‘auto-deposits,’ then you can set the balance level that triggers SafetyNet Credit to automatically send you a loan. Alternatively, you may borrow up to your available credit whenever you choose from your SafetyNet Credit dashboard.

What is SafetyNet Credit’s loan application process?

You need to complete an online application form, providing personal details, including contact details, an address history and bank account details. These will include your internet banking login credentials, as you need to link your SafetyNet Credit account to your current account (providing read only access.)

SafetyNet credit will then perform a loan affordability check, including a credit check and a review of the financial activity in your current account.
